i had an 86 honda vf500, beat up and old but only 6000 miles. Had for 2 or 3 years...didnt get a lot of road time tho, maybe ~200 miles. Was affraid to take it out, considering i dont have a motorcycle license. I still rode it around though. Cops never bothered me. I would like to get my motorcylce license this year and do it legit...and like devil doug, i want to get a vtwin...maybe an rc51 or an original honda hawk if i can find one in decent shape. I would also love to have an 80s gsxr 1300. There is torque if you want it
